Is it possible to add drag/drop files in the Overlay Control Center? Often I find that I have to move/copy some of the layers to another destination, and then I manually have to look at GlobalMapper and then Explorer to reselect the files.

If drag/drop from Overlay Control Center is not possible it would be nice with a Right click "Copy/Move current selected files" or simple Ctrl+C to copy and Ctrl+X to move and then use explorer to Paste (Ctrl-V) files.

    There's not currently a way to do this. In fact, I can imagine a lot of problematic situations with this, as many layers have a lot of files associated with them, many of which Global Mapper may not be aware of, so moving a layer could not always be guaranteed to move all of the files that a user wants or needs. It would be a nightmare to try and automatically sort this out. For now this will have to stay a manual operation.

    Thanks,
